A randomised trial was undertaken to compare the effect of three oral care protocols in delaying the onset of stomatitis and reducing oral injury in nasopharyngeal cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy, 30 eligible patients with a mean age of 56.2 years were recruited and evenly allocated to one of the three groups using a randomly permuted blocks method. Patients allocated to group E1 and group E2 were given the same instructions on oral care at 1 day, and 1 week before radiotherapy, respectively, while those allocated to the control group were given no instructions. We use the Oral Assessment Guide to assess the oral physical conditions of these patients daily. Our findings revealed that the patients in the E2 group not only had later onset of stomatitis than those in the control and the E1 groups, but also had lesser degree of oral injury measured by the overall assessment score. We thereby recommend the use of the E2 protocol for delaying the onset of stomatitis and reducing oral injury in nasopharyngeal cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy.

进行一项随机试验以比较三种口腔护理方案在接受放射治疗的鼻咽癌患者中延迟口腔炎和减少口腔损伤的效果,招募了30名平均年龄为56.2岁的合格患者,并平均分配给其中一名患者。三组使用随机排列的块方法。分配给E1组和E2组的患者分别在放疗前1天和1周接受相同的口腔护理指导,而分配给对照组的患者则没有给予指导。我们使用《口腔评估指南》每天评估这些患者的口腔身体状况。我们的研究结果表明,E2组患者不仅比对照组和E1组患者发生口腔炎的时间要晚,而且通过总体评估得分来衡量其口腔损伤的程度也较小。因此,我们建议在接受放疗的鼻咽癌患者中使用E2方案延迟口腔炎的发作并减少口腔损伤。
